Performed captive by her employers--and by her own demons--on a mystical farm, a widow battles to reunite with her young child in this uniquely American history of freedom, perseverance, and survival. Darlene, once an exemplary wife and a adoring mom to her young child, Eddie, confirms herself devastated by the unforeseen fatality of her man. Unable to cope with her grief, she transforms to drugs and quickly forms an addiction. One day she disappears with out a trace. Unbeknownst to 11-year-old Eddie, now left behind and in a panic-stricken search for her, Darlene has been lured away with false promises of any good job and a rosy life. A shady company known as Great tasting Foods shuttles her to a remote control farm, where she is held captive, accomplishing hard labor in the fields to repay the supposed credit debt for her food, lodging, and the continuous blast of drugs the farm provides to her and the other unfortunates imprisoned there. In Great tasting Foods Wayne Hannaham says the gripping history of three memorable character types: a mom, her child, and the medication that threatens to ruin them. Through Darlene's haunted battle to reunite with Eddie, through the attempts of both to overcome those who enslave them, and through the irreverent and mischievous speech of the medication that narrates Darlene's travails, Hannaham's daring and shape-shifting prose infuses this harrowing experience with sophistication and humor. The needy circumstances that test the unshakeable relationship between this mom and child unfold into misconception, and Hannaham's treatment of their ordeal spills over with compassion. On the way we experience an account at once modern and historical that wrestles with classic questions of love and freedom, forgiveness and redemption, tenacity and the will to survive.
